  2. 1. Nanolatexes: a versatile toolbox for cellulose modification

    Author : Alexandros Efraim Alexakis; Eva Malmström; Justin Zoppe; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nanolatexes; RAFT; PISA; adsorption; cellulose; modification; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Cellulosic materials are widely used in our everyday lives, ranging from paperand packaging to biomedical applications. However, in most applications, cellulose must coexist with hydrophobic polymers which can be challenging due to its hydrophilic character. This has encouraged the exploration of chemical and physical modifications of cellulose. READ MORE

  4. 2. Plasma Modification of Polypropylene Materials for Improved Adhesion

    Author : Anna Nihlstrand; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; polypropylene; characterization; material composition; lacquer adhesion; plasma modification; chain scission; vacuum-ultraviolet radiation; thermoplastic polyolefin;

    Abstract : Materials based on PP are widely used in industrial applications. To fulfil application demands, components must often be lacquered, printed or glued. As PP is highly unreactive and presents a low surface energy, a pretreatment that can promote bondability is necessary. READ MORE

  5. 3. Modification of zeolites and synthesis of SAPO-templated carbon

    Author : Yunxiang Li; Niklas Hedin; Anders Palmqvist; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; microporous material; zeolite; SAPO templated carbon; hydrothermal synthesis; CVD; post modification; direct modification; snowflake; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : Zeolites are crystalline aluminosilicates with diverse structures and uniform porosities. They are widely used as catalysts, adsorbents and ion-exchangers in industry. Direct or post modifications optimize the performance of zeolites for different applications. In this thesis, IZM-2 and TON-type zeolites were synthesized, modified and studied. READ MORE

  6. 4. The Effect of Processing Parameters and Alloy Composition on the Microstructure Formation and Quality of DC Cast Aluminium Alloys

    Author : Majed Jaradeh; Torbjörn Carlberg; Lars Arnberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Aluminium wrought alloys; AA3xxx and 6xxx; Direct Chill Casting; Unidirectional Solidification; Bridgman technique; Process parameters; Microstructure; Composition modification; Thermal analysis; Inclusions; Metallographical investigations; Metallurgical process engineering; Metallurgisk processteknik;

    Abstract : The objective of this research is to increase the understanding of the solidification behaviour of some industrially important wrought aluminium alloys. The investigation methods range from direct investigations of as-cast ingots to laboratory-scale techniques in which ingot casting is simulated. READ MORE

  7. 5. Local structure and composition : in additively manufactured bulk metallic glasses and composites

    Author : Inga Katharina Goetz; Jochen M. Schneider; Björgvin Hjörvarsson; Ulf Jansson; Maria Teresa Pérez Prado; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; additive manufacturing; bulk metallic glasses; nanoscale clustering; convective flow; laser nitriding; laser powder bed fusion; metallic glass - ceramic composites; oxygen impurities; mechanical properties; magnetic properties; viscosity; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Additive manufacturing enables the production of complex multi-material geometries and bulk metallic glass parts beyond their critical casting thickness. The local modification of structure, composition, and properties is explored in this thesis with the aim to design novel composite materials and functional gradients. READ MORE
